Mido Multifort TV Big Date in black and orange

Mido presented a new black and orange version of its Multifort TV Big Date. Ref. M049.526.33.081.00 has a suggested retail price of €1,350.

With the latest interpretation of the Multifort TV Big Date, Mido plays with the striking contrast between black and orange.

Identified by reference M049.526.33.081.00, this new version follows the models introduced with the launch of the new line in 2023 and the 2024 'Chocolate' version.

The watch comes in a 40 mm x 39.2 mm TV-shaped case equipped with a flat, square satin-finished bezel for a total thickness of 11.5 mm. 

The guard-protected screwed-down crown contributes to ensuring water-resistance up to a pressure of 10 bar (100 metres / 330 feet).

Both the case and the bracelet are made from deep black PVD-treated steel, with alternating satin-brushed and polished surfaces to highlight the dynamic lines. 

The integrated stainless steel bracelet features H-shaped links with polished centre links and is secured to the wrist by a double folding clasp with double safety push-buttons. The bracelet's bars are fitted with a spur system, allowing for effortless and tool-free changes. The lug width is 22 mm.

The dial is protected by a sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment on both sides and features a pronounced horizontal brushed finish with the colour gradually transitioning from grey to black at the edges.

At each quarter, trapezoidal hour-markers alternate with the round ones. The outer chapter ring facilitates reading the time by indicating the minutes. The faceted hour/minute hands and the hour markers are treated with orange Super-LumiNova that emits blue luminescence in darker environments.

The signature Mido big date stands out in orange at 12 o’clock.

The self-winding Calibre 80 (ETA C07.651 base) is visible through the transparent case back. This latest generation 3 Hz (21,600 vibrations per hour) movement is equipped with a Nivachron balance spring, offering exceptional resilience against shocks and magnetic fields, and offers a power reserve of 80 hours. 

The oscillating weight of the movement is adorned with Geneva stripes and the Mido logo.
